Written for one-semester non-majors in marine biology or a field-related marine biology course at any two- or four-year school, this text explores ocean ecology. It looks at how organisms interact with each other and the environment. Phonetic pronunciations are provided for difficult terms and names of organisms throughout the text and selected key terms have page references and provide a reviewing tool for learning the language of biology. End-of-chapter questions are provided at three levels - multiple choice, short answer and thinking critically - allowing students to test their understanding in a variety of ways.

Part I: The Ocean Environment. Science and Marine Biology. Fundamentals of Ecology. Geology of the Oceans. Water, Waves, And Tides. Part II: Marine Organisms. Evolution and Biological Classification. Marine Microorganisms. Multicellular Producers. Sponges, Cnidarians, And Marine Worms. Molluscs, Arthropods, Lophophorates, Echinoderms, And Tunicates. Fishes. Reptiles and Birds. Marine Mammals. Part III: Marine Ecosystems. Estuaries. Intertidal Communities. Coral Reefs. Coastal Seas and the Continental Shelf. The Open Sea. Deep Water. Part IV: Oceans and the Human Connection.
